Why choose Stagecoach Performing Arts Leamington Spa ?
Staff
It is a strict policy of the school to employ only experienced teaching staff, many of whom are professionals
in their own right. All staff members are screened through the Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly CRB)
for their suitability to work with children. Stagecoach is also dedicated to developing its staff
through one day workshops and in-service teaching courses.
Child Protection
Stagecoach has led the way in developing measures to secure the safety of students and is often
quoted as an example of Best Practice by specialists in the child protection arena. Stagecoach retains
the services of Steve Lowe, a leading child protection expert, who advises and implements the company’s child
protection protocols.
Discipline
Since a career in the performing arts is best attained through strict self-discipline, Stagecoach teaches its
students in a structured environment and encourages disciplined behaviour. Stagecoach reserves the right to
dismiss students who are consistently disruptive. Students are also expected to attend regularly and arrive on time
for class.
Inspections
Stagecoach prides itself in giving the best possible tuition and in order to monitor and maintain this high
standard, all Stagecoach schools are inspected at least once a year. This is carried out by an independent
School Inspection Agency.
Reports
Parents are kept in touch with a student’s progress by way of an individual written report. Provided
once per annum, each teacher and the Principal gives feedback on the development of every child.
Medals
Stagecoach does not reward natural talent and ability, believing this to be a given gift, but rather acknowledges
effort and perseverance. Medals and awards are presented to students for long attendance, who have attended
Stagecoach in excess of three years. Also every school presents one annual award to a student for exceptional
progress or achievement.
Examinations
Whilst it is not Stagecoach policy to conform to a strict syllabus, classwork covers many recognised board
requirements and students may be entered for the Performance Arts Awards, Group Musical Theatre
examinations and LAMDA Speech and Acting examinations.
Uniform
The Stagecoach uniform is compulsory and a stock of inexpensive clothing, bearing
the school’s logo, is available for purchase. Jazz shoes are also compulsory
and can be purchased directly from the school.
